“It’s okay.”

“It’s not okay.” John murmured, with his face buried in Sherlock’s chest.

“No,-- but it is what it is.” It was true, this relationship, this life made him a fortress, the one which you couldn’t possibly punch your way through. John kept his sorrow hidden inside his small and unassuming body and Sherlock kept his hidden behind the visage of a cold and calculating machine.

A fortress, indeed

He comforted John, but who was going to comfort him? He’d been beaten after all.

****************

There seems to be something tragic in a friendship so coloured by romance, for They have loved each other. However, Some Days, love isn’t enough.

Sherlock and John persevering, as always.

watson: it was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for irene adler. all emotions, and THAT ONE PARTICULARLY, were ABHORRENT to his cold, precise but admirably balanced mind

holmes: watson im sorry i said your writing was too romantic please come back to bed

[sentientsky]

repeating this to myself forever and ever

It's almost a year now, and still, he's the only one that still tries with her. Everyone else is kind of like, "Oh, she's weird and talking to herself now." As opposed to like, "OK, let's talk." (x)

[enbyhawk]

So I recently binged the first season of the Pitt

“Underground Rescue”

Created for @discordantwords for the Holmestice Summer 2017 exchange. I very much enjoyed working on their prompt (and received a marvellous story from them in return). If anybody feels inspired to write a story for this picture, I’ll be utterly delighted. AO3 link here.

[khorazir]

Yes, okay, you win. I’ll write the story. More info here. :)

[khorazir]

The story is at over 16k words now. I hope to wrap it up in under 30k and before school starts again in about two weeks’ time. Let’s hope RL isn’t going to interfere.

[khorazir]

The first chapter (of two) of the story is up now and can be found here: Underground Rescue. It’s the second installment of my Summer Boy series, but I think it works as a standalone, too.

[alysonafterdark]

how I’m gonna be come season 6 when we finally start getting those tiny little hints that mel and frank are actually together but just hiding it at work

[holmosexualitea]

Haven't posted in aaages... here's a quick one from yesterday night 🤞

[fuckyeahfightlock]

New around here? Things you missed in the first half of Sherlock fandom:

The Dark Fuck Prince (which led to the Top!lock/Bottom!lock Wars; few survived)

Tunalock, Faunlock, Merlock, Umbrellalock

Red Pants Monday

The Smol Softe (which was the rebound effect of the DFP; few survived)

John Watson’s Big Dick Walk[tm]

Mormor

Gridlock DC, 221B Con, Sherlock Seattle, Sherlocked

The Mystrade cosplayer who made a dapper suit out of goldfish-print fabric

That one night Sherlock tumblr got super horny (few survived)

A Finger Slip debacle (kickstarter! lots of cash! no result!)

What have I forgotten, Fandom Olds?

[chrissymbod]

Intern Kevin, responsible for Moriarty’s shenanigans…lol

Richard Siken courting the fandom to sell his poetry books

[longhornletters]

The post-S4 tin hat sect (secret episodes! conspiracies! possible Russian shenanigans?!)

[fuckyeahfightlock]

I love hearing about fandom history. 

This sounds like a “story so far” show intro… “last week on Sherlock fandom” except it was six? years ago. 

[original-welovethebeekeeper]

[fuckyeahfightlock]

[sherlockwatson-holmesblog]

1. Headcanons that Sherlock and John were preparing for a date the day Irene broke into Sherlock’s room.

“John, we have a client.”

“What? In your bedroom.” Had always been outright flirting and invitation to get into bed.

2. John being an absolute menace in his undergrad.

3. Doctor!Johnlock

4. Ballet Dancer Sherlock

God I have so much more.

[josilverdragon]

Saved this because it is so true.

[marta-bee]

Also, speaking as a once and hopefully future fanfic author: all I really wanted was to see people reading and enjoying what I wrote. If I was exceptionally bold I might hope they'd talk to me about that. You all have no idea how valued people who "just" read and reblog and recc and whatever else are to those of us doing the creating thing. If anything we need more of them.

[sherlockwatson-holmesblog]

I’ve been in and out of using my Tumblr page for a few years now, life has specifically gotten in between and I may lost touch with my wonderful friends here or the daily mentions I used to see pop up on my notifications centre but whenever I feel alone and not okay, I crawl back to this safe space that I’ve created.

Fandoms are just like that, in life your survival, your happiness depends on proactive participation and I know how draining it can be for everyone especially neurodivergent folks. This passive space which doesn’t rush us is a goldmine, and when i feel adrift and out of touch with my fandom roots, the simple act of liking, reblogging, reposting etc. feels enough since a lot of older fans have advocated for it, rightly so, so that the ones who god bless, actually do proactively participate with fic, artwork and what not, can feel supported and encouraged.

And sometimes just that much is enough :)

[thedaygoesupinflames]

i bring a sort of "this character is canonically malnourished and would gain at least a couple pounds during their hypothetical healing arc wherein they get better" vibe to the function that people dont really like
